In Tech-Berufen und Design sind Frauen weiterhin unterrepräsentiert – was zur Folge hat, dass Ihre Bedürfnisse häufig übersehen werden. Wie kann der Gender Gap in Design und Tech geschlossen werden? Hierzu haben wir ein Interview mit Julia-Constance Dissel and Melanie Levick-Parkin geführt, Herausgeberinnen des englischsprachigen Sammelbands „Materializing Fairness. Addressing Gender in Design and Tech“.

Über „Materializing Fairness. Addressing Gender in Design and Tech“
Women continue to be underrepresented in tech and design, resulting in their needs and perspectives being frequently overlooked. Addressing this gender gap requires substantial efforts across both academia and industry. While discussions around gender theories and the challenges of tackling tech and design from stereotypical viewpoints have increased, the focus often remains on the negative aspects. What is missing is a comprehensive look at real progress and the mechanisms driving it. This book closes that gap by showcasing successful initiatives and projects across various sectors – ranging from academia to industry, and from product design to engineering. It also examines how educational, social, economic, and ecological factors interplay in striving not merely for equality but for genuine fairness.
